Dislocations and morphological instabilities: Continuum modeling of misfitting heteroepitaxial films

Pulling helices inside bacteria: imperfect helices and rings
(2009-04)
We study steady-state configurations of intrinsically-straight elastic filaments constrained within rod-shaped bacteria that have applied forces distributed along their length. Perfect steady-state helices result from axial ...
Dynamic compartmentalization of bacteria: Accurate division in E-coli
(2001-12)
No abstract available.
Maximally fast coarsening algorithms
(2005-11)
We present maximally fast numerical algorithms for conserved coarsening systems that are stable and accurate with a growing natural time step Deltat=At2/3s. We compare the scaling structure obtained from our maximally fast ...
Self-organization of the MinE protein ring in subcellular Min oscillations
(2009-07)
We model the self-organization of the MinE ring that is observed during subcellular oscillations of the proteins MinD and MinE within the rod-shaped bacterium Escherichia coli. With a steady-state approximation, we can ...
Pattern formation inside bacteria: Fluctuations due to the low copy number of proteins
(2003-03)

Temperature dependence of MinD oscillation in Escherichia coli: Running hot and fast
(2006-11)

Diffusion of Asymmetric Swimmers
(American Physical Society, 2003)
Asymmetric swimmers that would move at a constant speed in perfect circles in the absence of fluctuations were studied. Particles moving at a constant speed with either a fixed or a Gaussian distributed magnitude of curvature ...
Clocking out: modeling phage-induced lysis of Escherichia coli
(2007-07)
Phage lambda lyses the host Escherichia coli at a precisely scheduled time after induction. Lysis timing is determined by the action of phage holins, which are small proteins that induce hole formation in the bacterium's ...
